Helen

many congratulations to you all. Fab weights and lovely names (our Thomas is called Thomas James!) and the 7th Aug is my birthday, take care, it is very scary but your confidence will grow. The time flies by and they grow sooo quickly.

There are so many twins at the moment hopefully we will soon be able to give each other helpful tips. If we find the time to post :?

Well done and welcome to your 2 little boys
With love

Lisa, Thomas and Ben x x x
